No children were aboard a school bus when it crashed into a garage on SR54 in Nesquehoning just after 7 a.m. this morning.

The accident, which occurred near the intersections of Tonoli Road and Yard Street on Stock Street (SR54), occurred when the operator of a car, Kevin Webb of Lake Hauto, driving a blue 2004 Ford Escape SUV, lost control on the ice and drove head-on into a school bus driven by William Reed Jr. of Kistler Transportation in Lansford.

While driving east, Webb swerved to the right side of the road, striking a mailbox. He then re-entered SR54 and drove head-on into the school bus, which was traveling west on SR54.

The collision resulted in the school bus snapping a utility pole and then crashing into and leveling an encolosed garage located at 194 Stock Street.

This morning's foggy conditions prevented Medevac 4 from responding and Webb was taken to the Gnaden Huetten Memorial Hospital in Lehighton via ambulance.
